Stream Recap - October 4, 2024

October Content - House of Horrors/Jack's Bounty-full Hunt

Side Quest is a new Bounties type event. Run the Side Quest 3x per week to trigger a Bounty for your alliance. More details below, and full details here

Scream/Jack o Lantern

Scream builds Madness which can be used to trigger lots of unique buffs. She can autoblock, and has access to Undermine. She can stack lots of bleeds and armor breaks, especially against opponents with non-contact attacks. She will likely be a very good tech counter, especially in PVP content. Her auto block will add some defensive ability but it is possible to play around

Jack can inflict Cowardice debuffs which also serve as a bias against sp1. He is immune to reversed controls and can parry non-contact attacks. He has lots of damage over time, some of which is tailored towards Mutants. He is expected to be a great Onslaught counter with answers to most of his strongest abilities.

Deep Dives go live over the weekend

I didn’t think a Medusa buff was necessary (just release her as a 7*), but it looks promising

It's most likely she is easy to buff and goes well with scream release.

Thanks for the quick recap. Much appreciated.

Dam my email on this account was hacked so I can't access it anymore. Does anyone know a way to change the email address attached to an account. I have tried changing it many times in game but it reverting back to the old one.

Write to kabam. They'll ask questions to verify your identity. If you pass, they'll change your email without sending a verification mail or otp to your old email. I also changed my email like this.

Bonus points if you have written to kabam already with your new email (So they can easily verify your identity).

Thanks! Bummer that it's just a 6*, but hey, free champs are free champs!

BlackTuran

Was there any confirmation about whether Medusa and Purgatory will be in the Titan or in the banquet crystals?

Or, if you already own them, free iso and more signature levels.

No confirmation. Players are speculating and that's all.

Ackbar67

Was there any confirmation about whether Medusa and Purgatory will be in the Titan or in the banquet crystals?

No confirmation, but last year, there was a special crystal tied to the Banquet called the 'Gifted Guardian' crystal, with one of each class. We know that there will be 6 buffed champions, with the last two coming out a couple weeks before Banquet, and they are called the 'Glorious Guardians'. It seems extremely likely that they will be tied to Banquet similar to last year's

Awesomep12

Are the free champs 6* or 7* for paragons and valiants?

@KabamDORK I really appreciated that you gave the dates for the pre release and arena for the new champs.

Not from Stream, but a BugFix nonetheless (from 47.0 Release Notes)
(Quote)
Fixed an issue with the “Use ISO from Stash” feature not using enough ISO to sufficiently level up Champions

So, does this also change it so that it defaults to seeing “expiring sooner” shown at top (instead of by Size or expiring later).
And will that let you click ALL (to fully Levelup) and actually mark everything from “expiring sooner” first and then on down, instead of how it currently (not very intuitively) marks the ISO in Stash in some odd fashion to be used for the Levelup ??

I hate that every time I go in there, I have to do 3 things.
Turn OFF the Auto-Select (because it is NOT smart).
Change Filter order to “Expiring Sooner”.
(*even turning Auto-Select back on afterwards here doesn’t work, still doesn’t take any changed filter sorted order into account).
And then select what CLASS to use (that one should be the only one you should have to do when you go in there).

And then actually a whole lot more things, because you have to manually select every single ISO you want to use, because the “Smart/Auto” is not smart.

There is practical confirmation, on social media kabam said they are going in special 7 star pools for december

That makes me wonder who the 2 extra champs will be for the Titan. They have to be good since the Titan pool has been underwhelming lately

Nah. They don't have to be "good" they have to be new as a 7* that's it. That's the only requirement. When will yall finally understand that.

I really want toad and stealthy but toad is r6 and stealthy is r4 asc so......on the fence bout that. Toad would benefit from crit rating so much. Waso would be good too

SummonerNR

I can just see someone doing “brute force” / “trial and error” scripted entering of random AI generated potential codes, to try and find codes meant for other people.

Hopefully for each Forum Account, you will also be limited to just claiming 1 giveaway code each month. (not just limit each code itself to only 1 use, but limiting the people trying to use them).
Or maybe limit the number of “attempts” you get if you incorrectly enter it at first (like an iPhone password lockout).

In any case, DO NOT SHARE IT when you get it in email, if the person you share it with uses it before you do, it will no longer work for yourself.

SummonerNR

(above, edit may not have been inserted).

Would be great if system could track which Codes are meant for which email-linked account.
And that if someone ELSE (based on email account) tries to enter the code that was sent to YOUR email, it would come up as “invalid” for them.

**but not sure the system could be setup that way or not
